Learning as PLAY! No too much pressure on children. I only focus on a child's personal development. I can be very playful, friendly, and tolerance to help out a child's needs. I had work in ELAC Child Center and I am a teacher assistant. I'm help teachers taking care of children's safety and child's personal development. I learn how to make children be more confidence and express feeling about oneself. I also learn each child's development milestone is totally difference. Children are smart and curious, they full of imagination through reading a story. Moreover, teachers set classroom's rules let children feel secure and understand how to control misbehavies.

I see the necessity to reintegrate education, not as a tool to get a well-paying job, but as a tool for life. I received my B.A. in Political Science, with a focus on International Relations. The information I learned from classes such as Political Theory, Philosophy, World Religions, World History, Anthropology helped me awaken my analytical mind, comprehend and deal with situations, make conscious decisions, and start my course as an adult citizen of this world. As a Junior in high school, I realized the strong need in my neighborhood for tutors. Since then, I have been committed. My subject experience include Elementary Math, Algebra up to Pre-calculus, Beginning Reading, Grammar, and Essay Writing. Because I see learning as our most natural love and tendency, I feel that anyone can learn ANY subject, granted they see the application of that subject in their life. I pick out

Learning to teach at age sixteen taught allowed me to develop my teaching style into a mature and planned method. I have taught dance classes, summer camps, and tutoring sessions. The diversity of the teaching subjects gave me insight into how students learn various material and how, for an individual group or student, a teaching style must be molded. I am an astute tutor who listens to the needs of her students and can be both patient and encouraging, varying my style in response to the needs of those I am with. Paying such close attention to my students responses I have guided many students on the path to success through the means they deemed for me to work for them. Pursuing a competitive major at a prestigious research institution required dedication, responsibility and excellence. These developed attributes lead me to graduate with a BS with honors and distinction in the major

As a teacher, my goal has always been to increase student achievement. I've taught 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th grade. Although my concentration has been mostly in elementary education, I am highly competent in Mathematics specifically in Algebra, English, Linguistics, Writing, History, and Reading. I've also attended the Princeton Review seminars to prepare me for the SATs and GREs; and from that experience I've also prepared my students for the state exams and how to be better test takers. Overall, I understand the dynamics of education and I'm fully aware on how I can prepare our children to successfully face those challenges. The art of teaching is contingent upon your audience, your students. I believe that as a teacher, it is critical that I adjust and modify my teaching style to match those of my students that I am teaching. I am a firm believer that the success of our students' l

I'm a big believer of motivation and encouragement. Once the kids are motivated when they feel the bonding, learning success will be achieved in a faster speed. I'd like to talk to the children every day to find out how their days went and their concerns and challenges especially if they feel they're capable of handling of the situation and their ways of doing such. I'm very passionate to help kids to be successful in school as well as in life. I've had 6 years of working as Student Aides in all levels of K-12; Math, English, Writing, and Arts, 5 years working as Teacher for Career Colleges: Websters, Phillip Jr., and University of Phoenix; Math, Computer Software Applications, Writing, Professional development, Accounting,Statistic, Student coaching,and Piano.

Well since I graduated from uni, I always wanted to strive for success and do the best I can at everything I do. I earned a Bacculerate degree in History which enabled me to gain a strong and competent knowledge of the past. Most importantly, I believe learning foreign languages at a local college strongly augmented my desire to learn and to realise my dedication for teaching. I'm now learning Russian and French at an intermediate level and ready to assist any beginner/novice students who are introduced to these modules. In addition, I'm also a native Chinese Mandarin speaker. Hence, I know I have the capability to strive for success through teaching and learning. I love to work and teach children everything I know in a particular subject. I think all children can learn but each in different ways. For me, I'm dedicated to not only help them to learn but also promote my own teaching style
